Creating a Compartment

Before you can install GitLab or SCM, you must create a suitable compartment for your deployment within your OCI tenancy. The user creating the compartment must have the necessary access rights to be able to create the compartment. Hierarchically, the compartment you create in your OCI tenancy must support at least two child compartment levels. If necessary, the person who set up your tenancy can create the compartment for you.

After you have created the compartment, copy the OCID of the compartment for future reference. Now you can create the stacks for GitLab and SCM within this compartment.

For more information, see relevant documentation for OCI. For example, see Overview of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Identity and Access Management for information about creating compartments, managing access rights to compartments, and more. See also Requirements and Limitations for OCI Deployments.
